The Chicago Anarchists.

Recognizing the philosophical
principle which lies at the basis of
of the anarchical movement the
way is prepared for answering,
not empirically and passionately
but logically and calmly, the ques-
tion at issue: ought the Chicago
anarchists to have been hanged as
murderers3 answering it, too, with
an emphatic no!
1t is not an answer which turns
on the point of whether they were
actual conspirators against the
government and society, deliber-
ately intending to use the bombs
for their overthrow. though |
think when passion has passed
away we shall all see this, as we
now do the hanging of John
Brown and Mrs. Surratt, in another
light; not an answer, either, which
turns on the justification in any
way of their violence. Let me
say right here, in the strongest
terms, that | do not justify vio-
lence. Violence should always be
the last resort of a principle. |
do not believe in the use even of
violent words. Arguments, facts,
ideas, the truth spoken in love,
the philosophy that recognizes the
true place even of its opposites-
these are its natural, God-given
weapons, these the bombs, as
Proudhon and Karl Marx have
shown, with which for anarchy to
make its assaults; and in the
moral even more than in the mill
tary field, the greatness of a vic
tory is to be measured by the few
ness, not the number, of its battle
grounds. At the same time it is
to be remembered that cause is
not to be condemned on the score
merely of the cranks and fools
who get together under its name.
or of the mistakes and follies of
its sensible upholders, Every
great tide is sure to bear with it a
multitude of straws and chips;
every great movement to run into
some excuses and follies. Re-

isn't that enough to knock a
hole in your Declaration Of Inde-
pendencea" inquiredthe anarchist,
in the outer room. "We're all
born equal, it says. Nice dose Of
equality that poor little shaver in
there starts with,eh1 Fine equal
chance he has with the babies born
on Mob hill, hasn't he1"
The laugh of Anarchist Roster
was deep and sardonic.
The prison authorities say that,
so far as, they know, Mrs. Fields
is just what she represents herself
to be-a Woodworking, decent
woman, who has only her hands
to depend on.
"I'll be up and around again
soon. please God" she said to the
reporter, land then | can make
my living"
Speaking editorially of the sad
case of the poor woman, the Err
aminey says:
ut is pathetic story that the
Examiner tells to-day, about the
little newcomer in the city prison
To be born in Jail, even in that
part of a Jail which serves rich
but thrifty city as receiving hos
pital, is not a very promising be-
ginning for a Re, 1t is no faul,
of poor Minnie Fields that hel
child has so inauspicious an intro
duction to the world. Left a
widow in her time of greatest
need she worked as long as she
could, but the fight was too hard.
"Itis in Christmas week that this
pitiful thing occurs. There is moi
a very merry Christmas in pros
pect for Minnie Fields and hel
baby. Cannot this free-heartec
city do something to make it ;
little less dreary? A public SUBJ
scription for the boy would dc
something to tighten the handi
cap with which he starts in life
Let those who are pouring Christ
mas gifts upon friends who do mo-
need them add to their lists the
name of one in desperate want O
some kindness.
"The Examiner willreceive pres
ents for the baby in sums of any
size, and it starts the subscription
with S25,'
According to the latest accoun
the baby has become the posses
sor of several hundred dollars ane
gifts innumerable from the charit
able of all conditions in San Fran
cisco.

Poor Working Woman Seeks Z
Prisons Shelter In Her Hour
OF Travail.

The San Francisco Examiner of
December 20 contained an account
If the bitter experience of poor
Minnie Fields, who in direst ex-
tremity was driven to seek shelter
and care, during her confinement,
in the city prison.
A reporter called on her and
pives his report in the following
manner:
Considering her shocking ex-
perience. the mother looked re-
markably well. She is large
famed woman, hardened physic-
ally by laborious. life. Yester-
day morning at 4 o'clock she
made her way into the Office of
the city prison and asked for
shelter and care. Already she
was suffering the pangs of child
birth. Her dress was mean and
her whole appearance bespoke
poverty, SO there was no great
al alacrity shown in attending to her.
When at last she was conducted
to the hospital the poor creature
was in extremity. DR.. Martineau
had been sent for when the exi-
gency was realized, but he had
not yet arrived. Fortunately,
Louis Roster, the anarchist, who
is employed as steward of the hos
pital, is not Awithout experience,
and acted as aee0mhew pending
the coming Of the physician. The
baby was already born when the
doctor dashed in.
My husband is dead" ex-
planned Mrs. Fields to the re-
porter. "Hewas bricklayer, and
went to sea, too. He died four
months ago, and since then I've
been supporting myself as a SER
want. When Iknew my time was

money for doctor, and Sunday

have somebody to look after me,
and came here. Thank God, its
all over. They've been very kind
to me"
She has four other children, the
eldest a boy of ID. All are in the
Catholic orphan asylum. She has
no relatives in California.
"Is this the boy1" asked the re-
porter, looking timorously at the
gray blanket on the other bed in
the low-ceiled, prison-smelling
room,
Yes. Isn't he ahne child, sir?"
The pride of the mother was
there, just as strong as if she had
been resting on the broadest of
beds in the most sumptuous of
chambers.
Fine does not describe the
youngster. Magnificent is the
word. He is a hfteen-pounder,
and is as big as an ordinary two
months-old child.
Hes not dressed" repeated his
mother, gazing fondly upon her
pink darling. 81 made some
things for him, but they've not
been brought yet. Isn't he fine
child. sir2"

ALBANY, Dec. 22.-At IL 80 a. m. the Hon.
Daniel Manning still survived, though his physi-
clan looked for his death all through last night.
1t seems certain that he cannot live through to-
night and his death is expected this afternoon.

addressed hts brother, John B. Manning, who
reached Albany this morning. His family have
been constantly at his bedside since yesterday
afternoon. His disease is Bright's disease.
IT WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF HIS STROKE

by DR.. Hun, his physician. to blood poisoning, su-
perfnduced by the bad sanitary condition OF his
Office In the Department. The diagnosis OF his
physicians at the time OF the stroke showed
Brights disease, but the fact for private reasons
was not made public Since last Friday Mr.. Man.
ming has been confined TO his bed, and mas known
that death was coming close to him. He has been
without pain and has borne the knowledge OF his
approaching end with cheerful Christian courage.
Since Friday DR.; J, Livingston Reese, pastor of St.
Paul'S Episcopal church, OF which Mr.. Manning
has been q member for years, has been In
constant attendance upon him, and the conversa-
tfonS have shown that Mr.. Manning in a deyout
spirit was fully prepared. Last evening he fell
into occasional spells Of semf-conscfousness, but
